I have been teaching Abigail some sign language because she doesn't talk much, and today she signed her first word...MORE!!! I am so excited, it's like she is saying her first word. She brought me her empty sippy cup and I asked her if she wanted more. After I said the word "more", she signed it!! She can have as much formula as she wants. :)

Pure and undefiled religion before our God andFather is this:to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keeponeself unstained by the world. -James 1:27

Eosinophil

is the least common of the white blood cells. They make up 2-4% of the white blood count. Children with eosinophilic disease have increased numbers of eosinophils in their blood, GI tract, and/or organs. Produced in the bone marrow, eosinophils then migrate to tissues throughout the body. When a foreign substance (an allergen or parasite, for example) enters the body, lymphocytes and neutrophils (other types of white blood cells) release certain substances to attract eosinophils which release toxic substances killing the invader.
